Everton vs Liverpool Best Bet
20:00GMT
Liverpool
Goodison Park
For April 24, 2024, we will have a very interesting game between Everton and Newcastle On Goodison Park. Everton are currently sitting in 16th spot in the Premier League. They are fighting to stay in the Premier League and to avoid relegation. Liverpool are 2nd seed, 3 points behind the 1st placed Arsenal. However, Liverpool have played one game less, so today’s win would get them the exact same points as Arsenal have. They are also just one point above Manchester City, so this game is a must-win game for them if they want to stay in the fight for the title. This will be the 244th Merseyside derby. Expect a high-intensity game with a lot at stake.

Current Form
Everton got 8 points deducted from them by the federation decision. They breached the Premier League’s profit and sustainability regulations, so that is why. This hurt them a lot, but we believe that they will manage to stay in the Premier League. Everton would already be mathematically safe had it not been for their points’ deduction. After their terrible 0-6 loss against Chelsea earlier last week, Everton stepped up at home and got one of their most important wins of the season against Nottingham Forest 2-0. Nottingham Forest are their relegation rivals, so with this win, Everton pretty much secured their stay in the Premier League. Success against their home-town rival has been rare. The Toffees have won just one of the last 26 Premier League games against Liverpool. Other than that, Everton have not beaten the Reds at Goodison Park in the last 12 meetings. With only 5 games left for them, the Toffees need to keep winning points to secure their stay in the Premier League.
Liverpool won their last two games. They bounced back well after they got eliminated in the Europa League by Atalanta. The last game they played was against Fulham in London. They kept pace in the Premier League title race with a hard-fought 3-1 win against them. The Reds had 61% ball possession and were just attacking the whole time. We expect a similar game from them tonight against Everton as well. This is a must-win game for them if they want to keep up with Arsenal and Manchester City. Liverpool have only 5 games left this season in the Premier League, so they can not afford to lose any points.
Best Bet to Make
According to the bookies, the Reds are big favorites tonight. We believe that Jürgen Klopp will start again with three strikers attacking Everton from the very start. A strong historical head-to-head record will give them confidence tonight. Expect them to have many scoring chances, it will be up to their strikers to put the ball in the net.
That being said, Liverpool winning by at least 2 goals is a value bet.
